Successful but depressed

Absolutely mammoth day today, where everything seemed to go right for me... except of course for the most important thing, which went horribly wrong. Ho-hum.

Had my best day of betting in recent memory and feel more than satisfied with today's trading - but still feel down and depressed about the Spurs result, even though it wasn't entirely unexpected. I keep replaying in my head Defoe sliding into the box in the last few minutes and missing the goal by a few inches. That would have put us 2-3 up and who knows what would have happened then. Instead, our man-mountain Ledley King gave away a stonewall penalty and that was that.

There was some compensation, of course, when Arsenal went down against Man Utd. This means none of the teams behind us have made any real headway, so hopefully we should still be okay for a Champions League spot.

On the betting, without really knowing why, I took a more aggressive approach today than I normally do. I wouldn't say that I went crazy with my risk, but it felt right at the time to increase my exposure on certain scenarios for defined periods of time - and thankfully it all paid off.

So, a very good day's trading all in all.
